Mine seems realistic

Definitely has to be the default 747. By a mile.

[Jkuzzie 5]

I haven't shelled out the money for a PMDG plane yet, but my personal favorite is the QW Bae 146

Hey John,

 

the setup looks just great... i have a question though...which i have been wanting to ask for a bit... when it comes to setting up the cockpit and you have the gauges etc showing below the 60" tvs... how do you actually do that? I am seriously thinking of having a large tv for the main screen and using my 2 27" monitors to show the gauges, pfd, nd etc...

 

Any suggestions?

 

Cheers

Doug,

 

There's two PCs running that.

 

PC1 runs the outside visuals P3D (dual GTX285 moving to GTX680 this week). It also has another low end card driving the lower EICAS.

 

PC2 runs two 19" screens running CPT and FO PFDs and NDs, a 15" running the upper EICAS and standby instruments as well as driving the CDU display.

 

Avionics are ProSim737, and its connected via wideclient. PC2 is just using a couple low end video cards, best one being a GT310 so nothing special needed for those displays.

 

Less impact to tHe visuals PC since I don't need that to display a VC or 2D cockpit, however it comes at the cost of the separate avions and systems software.

Cazn't believe nobody mentioned the Leonardo Maddog. Saw the Coolsky one, but I thought the CDU was non functional?

 

At any rate, we presently working on a graphics update for the Leo Maddog.

 

As anyone who's researched this model knows, it's still the most accurate and systems intensive aircraft for flight simulator. The NGX (I love that aircraft as well, and have an equal number of hours in both aircraft) might well surpass the Maddog with the next service pack from PMDG. We'll see!

Pmdg 737 ngx is definitely the best, just like a real airliner. Cockpit graphics are very good too. Haven't tried all of them but so far PMDG 737 has been best.
